00:12are sprinting towards making history, bringing honor to our country, and

00:25also carry with you the banner of our nation that believes in you, stands
00:30proudly beside you, and celebrates your every triumph, and is with you through
00:36any obstacle. Whether in the boxing ring, on gymnastics floor, sculling in the
00:43rowing, or in any area that you compete in, you exemplify the
00:49very best of what it means to be a Filipino. We are competitive, courageous,

At palagay ko, yung sigaw namin, na pagka pinapanood kayo namin, lalakasan namin yung sigaw namin. Kahit dito sa Maynila, maririnig ninyong hanggang dun sa Paris. Maraming maraming salamat, magut magulutin.
